![Page 6: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Case # 1 cont’d
• Potential Causes of Hematuria:– Urethral Injury– Bladder Injury– Ureteric Injury– Renal Injury
![Page 7: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
RENAL TRAUMA
![Page 8: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Renal Trauma Overview
• Most commonly injured GU organ
• 10% of all serious injuries abdominal have associated renal injury
• Variable etiology depending on the area– Rural: 80-95% blunt– Urban: as little as 15% blunt
![Page 9: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Hematuria and Renal Injury
• NOT related to the degree of injury
Gross Hematuria is Variable:– 1/3rd of patients with renovascular injuries– 24% of patients with renal artery occlusion– Only 63% of Grade IV injuries (4% have no
hematuria whatsoever!)
![Page 10: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Whom to workup
• Penetrating trauma: EVERYONE
• Blunt trauma: Image with CT if:• gross hematuria• microhematuria plus shock• microhematuria plus acceleration/deceleration
Mee et al. (1989)
Hardeman et al (1987)
![Page 11: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Imaging of trauma patient with hematuria
• CT preferred– With contrast– With “delayed” films (mandatory)– Why not get CT cystogram too?
• Standard intravenous pyelogram (IVP): Forget it
• “One Shot” intraoperative IVP– 2 cc/kg intravenous contrast– Single film at 10 minutes
![Page 12: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Intraoperative One Shot IVP
• Allows safe avoidance of renal exploration in 32% (Morey et al, 1999)
• Highly specific for urinary extravasation
• Confirms existence of the other kidney
![Page 13: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Indications for renal trauma surgery
• Absolute– Grade V renal injury (debatable in blunt trauma):
NEPHRECTOMY or REPAIR– Vascular injury in a single kidney: Vascular repair
• Relative– Persistent bleeding > 2 units/day– Devitalized segment AND urinary extrav (80% complication
rate?)– Renal pelvis injury– Ureter injury– Incomplete staging and ongoing laparotomy– Grade IV vein or artery (thrombosis): nephrectomy
• Most penetrating renal injuries

Management Options For Renal Trauma
• Close observation– Bed rest– Serial Hemoglobins– Antibiotics if urinary extravasation
• Radiographic Embolization• Urinary Diversion
– Ureteral Stenting– Nephrostomy Drainage
• Surgery– Renal Preservation / Reconstruction– Nephrectomy

Bladder Trauma
![Page 23: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Bladder: BLUNT: Overview
• Rare: <2% of all injuries requiring surgery
• Often with a severe associated injuries
• Often high-energy injuries
• Associated with urethral rupture 10-29% and pelvic fracture 6-10%
![Page 24: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Civilian incidence 2% Associated major abdominal injuries
(35%) and shock (22%) Mortality high: 12%
Bladder: PENETRATING: Overview
![Page 25: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Bladder: Diagnosis: Physical Signs Suspicion: required in cases of penetrating
trauma (no time for studies): based on trajectory
Physical signs: Abdominal pain Abdominal tenderness Abdominal bruising Urethral catheter does not return urine Delayed?
Fever No urine output Peritoneal signs BUN / Creatinine
![Page 26: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Bladder: Diagnosis: Hematuria
Most (95%) have gross hematuria Microhematuria does occur: usually with
minimal injury
![Page 27: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Bladder: Diagnosis Plain Cystography
Nearly 100% accurate when done properly:
– Adequate filling with 350 cc– Drainage films
Use 30% contrast Underfilling (250 cc)
associated with false negatives
![Page 28: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Bladder: Diagnosis CT Cystography
Preferred, especially if already getting other CTs
Antegrade filling by “clamping the Foley” is not OK!
Must dilute contrast (6:1 with saline, or to about 2-4%)
![Page 29: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Posterior Urethral Injuries
![Page 31: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Posterior Urethra Trauma: Etiology
4-14% of pelvic fractures Bilateral pubic rami fractures (straddle
fracture) and sacroiliac diasthasis Mostly males, but can happen in females Associated bladder rupture in 10-17% Rectal injury can lead to urethral-rectal
fistula in 8%
![Page 32: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Posterior Urethra Trauma: Diagnosis
Blood at meatus: 50% “High riding prostate”: 34% Inability to urinate Inability to place urethral catheter Rarely, perineal hematoma (late finding)
![Page 33: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

Posterior Urethra Trauma: Management
Unable to get Foley in: Place an open suprapubic catheter
Allows inspection/repair of the bladder for associated injury
No evidence that s/p “infects orthopedic hardware” although ortho docs worry about it

Testes Trauma
• Rare in general• But, in significant scrotal blunt trauma,
rupture can be as high as 50%• Bilateral 1.5%• Assaults and sports injuries predominate• Local anesthetic block may improve exam

Case # 2
![Page 42: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
We get all sorts of calls….
![Page 43: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Main points : Kidney Trauma• Get a CT in everyone with
– Gross hematuria– Microhematuria + deceleration or shock
• Treat most kidneys nonoperatively• Indications for operation:
– Grade V renal injury– Persistent bleeding– Suspected ureter or collecting system injury– Incomplete staging and ALREADY having lap
• Isolate the vessels first
![Page 44: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Main Points: Bladder Trauma
• Get a CT cystogram if pelvic fracture• Most extraperitoneal ruptures can be
managed conservatively, – BUT: Consider treating extraperitoneal bladder
ruptures OPEN, especially if undergoing lap and DEFINITELY if undergoing pelvic ORIF
• Microhematuria (no gross hematuria) usually means no significant injury to bladder
![Page 45: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Main Points: Ureter/Urethra
• Suspect ureter injuries and you’ll miss them less
• If the Foley isn’t draining, it’s probably not in the right place
![Page 46: Urological Trauma UBC Department of Urologic Sciences Lecture Series](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110206/56649cfd5503460f949cddd6/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
